Awesome spot for access to restaurants, shops, etc. very cute space, lovely outdoor patio/garden. Would’ve loved some more coffee and tea amenities in the house.

We enjoyed our stay here. Check in was easy, house has a great layout and was clean. The location is great. You can easily walk to the downtown shops and restaurants. We enjoyed being able to sit in the backyard garden area in the evening. Our only issue was that we found the master bedroom bed to be uncomfortable. Also though it sleeps 7, note that the living/kitchen area is small (no kitchen table, just a breakfast bar with stools, and the living area isn't huge). Overall, we enjoyed our stay and this worked well for our needs.

We had such a good time staying at Shoebox Cottage. The house was perfect-clean and beautifully furnished, and the location was great. We enjoyed the beautiful gardens and outdoor space-a lovely oasis! This is one of the best rentals we have had in our many years of coming to Saugatuck for our family gathering each summer.

Some of our family was in from Phoenix and we stayed here to celebrate a birthday. It is a beautiful property and close to all the things Saugatuck has to offer. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Great location and very nice home. The only complaints would be the upstairs drain in the shower/tub did not flow well. T/A well, the beds were also very very soft. Otherwise, the place was very nice and great there was a little garden and even a grill, that had we stayed longer, I am sure we would have used.

We have been coming to Saugatuck for 30+ years and this charming and well equipped house was one of the best locations for us with a very short walk to downtown. The gardens were beautiful and tranquil. We had two cars but there was ample parking in the drive for 4, an important consideration if you know how difficult parking can be in the area. Lovely decor with updated kitchen and bath, ample towels and linens and very clean. Highly recommended.

It was the perfect setting for my kids to meet up with my husband and myself. It was close enough to walk to eat, shop and enjoy the water and yet just far enough to give us the privacy if we wanted. The home was clean and the garden was lovely, many family games were played outback!

This House has a lovely outdoor garden area but the weather kept the 6 members of our party inside for much of our 3 day stay. Living area is quite small, kitchen area has a bar counter with 4 chairs for eating and playing any games There were a few issues with the house that were brought to Liz’s attention and her response was quick. My first time to visit the area and found Saugatuck extremely charming and friendly city.. Will visit again

House was lovely. Great location. Only thought walking out in front porch there should be a railing or something to let you know there are no stairs that way. Nice house and good beds.

We stayed in this property to attend our daughters wedding in Saugatuck. We also had family stay with us. The property was clean and just as described. This home is located one block from all the action of saugatuck, so it was easy to just walk right into town, I would recommend this property to anyone who wants a stress-free vacation. In addition, their little backyard is adorable and just the right place to hang out after a long day watching boats and shopping. Plus I appreciated the fully air-conditioned house because the weather got pretty warm. Don’t hesitate to book this one.

I was about to give a rating of 5 star . However , on our 3rd day , we had a problem of not being able to lock the side door from outside . Communicated right away to the owner , Liz , who promptly answered my text .She told me her future plans . To make the story short the problem was not resolved . So we ended up going out without this door closed . …In the evening , my hubby had the shortest shower he ever had as there was no hot nor warm water . Again communicated this to Liz and promptly replied . She told us to check the breaker but to no avail . Following day, everyone left withou taking a shower 😌..This is a charming house with excellent location . Hoping these problems will be resolved for the next guests ! Because of the above mentioned issues , my rating is 3.5 stars .

The property met our group of adult family members’ needs. We were very comfortable, kitchen was well stocked and location was easily walkable to restaurants, shops, and water activities. A lovely stay all around.

The property was in a perfect part of town for our group. The house was big enough for our group of 7 to easily spreadout. The host was very accomodating and made oue stay great! Small note that water heater stopped working on the last night of our stay but I did communicate that with the host. We'll keep this property in the mind for the future!

The toilets were not clean and clearly missed by the cleaning crew - the downstairs toilet was gross. Also the WiFi is slow and the TV is cumbersome. The outdoor patio furniture was covered in tree sap. Otherwise solid stay and location is awesome.

This beautiful home exceeded our expectations! The house was spotless, beds we’re comfortable, there were plenty of soft towels and we appreciated the toiletries provided in each bathroom. We can’t say enough about the location! It was so nice to walk to everything and so close to all the cute shops and restaurants! We were able to enjoy the gorgeous backyard one afternoon with some wine, cheese and great conversations with the other couple who joined us. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful and Comfortable Cottage. Had everything 6 females would need for a weekend stay, from the well equipped kitchen to the comfy beds and roomy bathrooms. The only issue was poor lighting in the sitting area because we couldn’t get the two lamps to work. Location was amazing. Walking distance to practically everything. We all loved our stay and enjoyed every minute. Our host was wonderful and always had a quick response to questions. Thank you Liz!

Nice stay at Liz’s place and only one complaint about doing laundry at the house. Liz responded that they had had issues with washer/dryer and said you need patience….which we did but frustrating that machine would keep shutting off etc laundry took forever for very small load to do but otherwise we enjoyed our stay!
